What are the best home care agencies here in Chicago, Illinois?
The past few years my grandfather and I have been taking care of his wife (my grandma), who was diagnosed with Dementia in 2005. As his support, I come by almost every week to assist my grandfather with her meals, meds, clothing and clean-up. My grandfather was discussing with me to research a home care agency here in Chicago. There are some many agencies out there and I do not know which one that could be creditable 0_0. I am in need of support...
I just do not want to choose a agency that has a bad track record of their home aides mistreating their elderly clients..
Thank You..
1 AnswerOther - General Health Care8 years agoIs This A Bump Or Just An Infection?
I noticed this small red spot on the inside of my mouth the day after my gallbladder surgery. The small red bump is located on the inside of my bottom grill of my teeth. I thought it might go away after a couple of days, but now it has grew large in size. When I touch it with my tongue it does hurt a little but my teeth are fine. They do not ache but I am curious...could it be a infection or just a bump inside my gums?
1 AnswerDental1 decade agoAre there other procedures used to correct the spine of a patient who has Scoliosis?
My brother has a spinal condition called Scoliosis. His doctor told him that he would have to have surgery as soon as possible before the curve in his spinal gets worse. My brother told me that the surgeon who is going to perform the surgery on his spine is going to use bones from a cadaver. The cadaver bones are going to replace the disks (bones) that are damaged. My mother was upset about the news and told my brother that his uncle had neck surgery recently. The surgeon used cadaver bones to replace a certain section of bones in his neck. After the surgery he has not been the same since.
I remember last month I was a watching a UFC match on spike TV. One of the fighters had a serve back injury and out for months. He advertised a company called Proflex ( I believe that is the name, but I am not sure) on his shorts. After he won the fight, he begin talking about the company and how they design this device to replace a disk in his back.

My daughter is 15 months old. Her nose has been runny for the past three weeks or so. I believe she has hay fever because the (snot) mucus is yellowish and sometimes alittle bit green. I do my best to clean her nose and basically comfort her with her allergies.

7 AnswersNewborn & Baby1 decade agoWhere Could I Find An Manufacturer To Produce A Prototype Made Of Rubber?
I searched endlessly on the internet for a manufacturer who specializes in rubber materials. I could not find no manufacturer here in the Chicagoland area. Some of the them here specializes in arcylic, steel and other solid materials. I need rubber material because it is durable, it bends and stretches. The reason why I am searching for a rubber manfacturer is to create and mold my prototype of a child safety device that I have recently received a patent for. The child safety device has to be flexiable and has alittle stretch to be applied around cabinet handles. Please help!

3 AnswersVideo & Online Games1 decade agoWho Is Your Favorite Baroque Artist?
My favorite period in art history is the baroque period. Artists and sculptors from that time period each had unique styles. They created beautiful but yet bold works of art. They we're all great at depicting the human form in each of their paintings and sculptures. My favorite artist of that period is Bernini. I like his sculpture "The Rape Of Proserpina". Bernini's sculpture is so life like because of the many details he applied in the sculpture.
